ISS today generates and radiates away about 120 KW of energy with its old tech 3250 sq m of panels panels and it's current radiators. That's what 3 H100 racks need There may be an economic challenge - which seems to be the sort of problem mass manufacturing can solve very well. There may be a compute model & latency problem, how do you organize model training when racks are much further apart than in traditional data centres (although speed of light is 50% faster in vacuum than glass fibre). But that's algorithms. Relative to everything else in orbit, powering a rack of compute and some comms per satellite seems not really to be a physics problem. |
